Everybody recognises there are 100s of alternatives when it comes to buying a protein skimmer for your fish tank. But narrowing your selection down does not have to be a difficult job. First of all, the protein skimmer is among the most important item of equipment you’ll purchase. Don’t skimp on this purchase. Buy the largest, branded, well performing skimmer you are able to afford.

While looking for a protein skimmer keep in mind that a lot of these are overrated for the size fish tank they can handle. It’s recommended that you buy something that can cover more than the size of your aquarium. So for example if you’ve a 50 gallon fish tank, buy a skimmer rated for at least 70 gallons. This will save you many headaches long-term with being forced to buy another skimmer because you purchased one that was too small.

Needlewheel, Venturi, or Beckett? This is a common question and is not really that hard to choose between them. Many people are biased on the different methods and swear by what they’ve used. All of them perform very well if you purchase the right brand.

When you’re ready to take the plunge make certain to research your purchase. Make sure you buy from a reputable company. Keep one’s distance from company’s that mass produce every type of aquarium product available as these products are usually inferior cheaply-made items. Go with a company who specializes in a few products and has proven results. Red Sea for example only produce a small range of skimmers such as the Red Sea Prizm Skimmer and these are all high quality devices.

When organic wastes are deposited into your aquarium, the bacteria in your tank will then turn this waste into nitrogenous matter. This is something that can be extremely harmful to the fish that live in the aquarium and if it is not taken care of it can even be life threatening. The skimmer in your tank can just about get rid of this waste as quickly as it’s formed, which means a a good deal healthier environment for your fish. Skimmers can also be useful in getting rid of other substances that can form in the tank such as carbohydrates, fatty substances, and even elements that can be contained in organic molecules.

Essentially, if you really want to have a successful tank a protein skimmer can be one of the most important purchases you’ll invest in. Protein skimmers are available in a broad range of designs, sizes and prices – the more costly ones require less upkeep and are easier to install. Whatever the case, try to purchase a protein skimmer with a large collection cup. Also remember, the stronger the bubble generator, the more efficient is the protein skimmer.

As a leading innovator and manufacturer of quality products for aquarium hobbyists, Red Sea constantly strives to provide hobbyists of all levels with highly effective solution-driven products designed to make your fish-keeping experience as enjoyable and successful as possible. The Red Sea Protein Skimmer achieves just that.

I found this bike as a frame & Fork set with only the blue Super Maxy crank set, chain and SR seat clamp. It had been hanging, for many years, in a storeroom of an old bicycle shop in Johannesburg.
